Saw Glass Onion yesterday and besides needing another five million Benoit Blanc mysteries, I also need to acknowledge Janelle Monae has captivated me since Metropolis and clearly shows no signs of stopping.

#the person Janelle Monae is #truly amazing #Glass Onion #art #also I really need to know more about Blanc’s domestic life #do you think he keeps in touch with Marta and [REDACTED]? #has his husband been stress baking the entire pandemic or just when Blanc started spending days on end in the bath? #Andi Brand #janelle monae #Knives Out

Happy White Day!

I can imagine Rita sitting in their office trying to figure out what to give HimeMorf for White Day after getting chocolate from them. I also headcanon them as the type that bakes sweets whenever they have free time.

And since they both also like Moffun, Rita would decide to make Moffun-shaped macarons because they know those two are classy and they're easy to eat while working. Only thing is that they never told anyone they enjoy baking. Morf only knows because she's caught them baking late at night. Himeno later tries to tease them and put in requests. That's how she learns how much Rita loves chocolate and sweet desserts when they show up to afternoon tea with brownies and chocolate chip cookies 😂

#shy rita is best rita #i dont make the rules #also added baking to my hc bc it adds more to the cute factor hidden by their stoic personality #also a good stress reliever to get their mind off work #if their baked goods are a success they give some to Morf who immediately notices their good mood when they hand her a plate #kingohger #king ohger #ohsama sentai kingohger #rita kaniska #rita kanisuka #himeno ran #hymeno ran #morfonia #morphonia #himerita #hymerita #ritamoru #ritamorf #kingoh doodles

Imagine Bruce starting therapy and learning about all these cool new tricks and gadgets that can help with emotional regulation and getting super invested (because I mean, c’mon, the dude’s like the king of gadget hoarding, he’s got a utility belt for goodness sake)

Then imagine the learning curve of him realizing that just because something works great for one of his kids, doesn’t mean it works for all of them, as illustrated by this memorable incident:

Jason gets really upset and starts having a minor panic attack about something

Bruce, proud owner of 14 new weighted blankets (in various styles, weights, and sizes), tries to wrap his adult son up in one to ground him

After all, Bruce himself finds them super comforting because it’s basically a socially acceptable alternative to wearing a massive Kevlar cape 24/7 like he’d do if he could

(Tim loves them too, so like, kid tested, parent approved™️)

Ends up totally backfiring when the added weight & restricted movement sends Jason into a full-blown flashback of digging out of his own grave, taking this panic attack from like a 4 to a 10

Whoops

#I just like the concept of one therapeutic approach working wonders for someone #and being another person’s worst nightmare #and both things being valid #because people are different #and sometimes you gotta try a lot of crap to find something that helps #same for clicky fidget toys and white noise machines and indoor swings #Dick loves spinning in the the swing #and Damian once did a few too many spins (showing off) and puked on Titus because he gets super motion sick #not that he’ll ever admit it #Jason likes to stress bake #whereas Duke cannot eat when stressed #like appetite negative three #it’s okay though because Steph will eat like 6 muffins herself while rambling for 40 minutes straight about some situation with a coworker #so it all evens out #batman headcanon #batfam

fun fact, Red bakes. He’s very good at it. 

#lmk #lego monkie kid #lmk macaque #lmk godslayer au #doodles #he stress bakes #one of his healthier coping mechanisms tbh #mei got him an apron that says 'stressed is just desserts spelled backwards' #he does the thing where he leaves a bit too much batter at the bottom of the bowl before handing it to one of his kids to finish off #he always looks so caught off guard when i draw him lmao #anyways i did this instead of my finals

#its just that i want to respond to Most with scribbles #and since it takes me so long to do anything #especially lately with... everything that's happening... my Motivation and Energy has been more drained than normal #and 'normal' is already at Low Levels! #but yeah and i just Want To Get To Everyone #there are some real good asks in there! #but then each new one is like Oh I Wanna Do That #YALL ARE GIVING ME TOO MANY TASTY RECIPES!!! #i cant bake 95 cakes at once!!!! #all of this said affectionately ofc #i never imagined my lil art blog's inbox would ever reach double digits #let alone nearing triples! #i just need to take things a bit slower than usual. implement some personal moderation yk yk #absolutely unprompted #do i know when the box will reopen? nope! #in all honesty it might be a couple months... idk idk. idk! #my life is very uncertain and stressful and will be for At least until november #mid-november probably. late november. perhaps even early december... #depends on how quickly i get settled in my New living situation or how fast i empty the inbox #cause im moving late october... i just dont know! #everything is kinda falling apart! but its fine its fine . i will work on asks and art #*will graham voice* this is my escape #there are several that im excited to get around to! #mainly a couple'a Lights Out ones but there are Others as well... #if you were planning on sending an ask. uh. sorry! #im grabbing your tongue and shoving it back in your face. hush. #edit: AND i wanna respond to some replies cause those get sooo neglected #its like my brain says 'you can either respond to replies or asks. not both. die' #and i have to be all 'thanks cool thats totally reasonable! perish'

Love the tragic irony of peppino having used to keep his hair long ngl...... Btw do you think he used to have some different hobbies back then? :O

(good luck w that comm btw-)

I dont think its tragic! His hair STILL comes down to his shoulder; he just doesnt have any annoying hair in his face that would make him want to make a ponytail. I think when u start balding u either panic or make ur peace and i think he was too worried about Other Things to care about it lol

As for hobbies, he has a Couple that i thought were cute and fitting.

Despite the anxiety, he is a bit of an entertainer. He can do magic tricks! Not very flashy ones but he knows alot of card and sleight of hand tricks; it is fun to see people stare in disbelief, and its a good way to keep his hands busy. The Autism prevents him from withholding Magic Secrets; if anyone asks him how he did it he will be very happy to share it. It helps that tricks are STILL hard to perform, even if u have the Knowledge of how it works.

He doesnt consider himself an artist but he can do caricatures 😊 I am very attached to my hc that he drew the little storefront logo for his own shop. Partly bc it would be easy for him to draw; mostly bc he did not want to waste money to get someone ELSE to do it if he could just do it his damn self. You will not catch him drawing or sketching anymore, even post game when hes doing better overall. But like most things, u can press him into showing off a little bit if u say the right words.

I hesitate to call it a hobby, but he will go jogging almost Daily. Well. When he was younger he jogged daily but nowadays he will at the very least Walk daily. He does it really early in the morning before he opens up shop, or in the evening if the weather permits. He doesnt like the rigidness of ‘working out’ though, and will avoid it like the plague; he is a little baby (princess) and does not want to get achey muscles and he does Not want to sweat at all its the worst. Post game, he will have random peeps join him for walks. He does not ask for this but it is not the WORST thing in the world to have some company :)

#answered #chattin #peppino #i have a bunch of other ones but wehhh #this will be an essay #which is what im trying to avoid now hdjdbdksk #he can bake as well he is just very good w foods overall #but when he got older and more stressed it accidentally turned into him stressbaking #he used to give it away to neighbors (bc the thought of throwing out food makes him ILL) #but now he gives it to noisette and gus bc they are literally black holes #they will simply eat anything and everything #also i think he can play on a concertina but only bc like #his uncle or grandpa taught him when he was younger to like #Expand His Brain or some shit; u know- teach them when theyre young bc theyre so receptive to new things #and THIS is bc i think it would be cute if he made a tiny peshino prototype for like marketing reasons #and he based it off of him being Just Okay with the instrument #and the tinkering is bc i think him being a BROKE BITCH meant that he was unable to literally call for repairs around his shop (and home…) #so he just took it upon himself to learn how to do basic repair stuff #and like #keeping his hands busy #tinkering to make a little windup toy seemed to make sense from there bfjdndkdndk #hes got lots of very minor talents and skills but they add up to give u a man that has approximate knowledge of many things #and he keeps it all to himself bc hes a loner :) #OMG how did i almost forget; thank u; i am still lining this comm #its not even BAD i am just. uninspired #i like draw big dudes buff OR fat and i am drawing Some Guy #so ive been dragging my feet through the mud gettin it done #but on god im finishing this lines tonight

More misc. daily life pictures and such

#image commentary in tags once again since they don't allow captions anymore and I feel weird using the alt text for that -- #1 & 2 - Very bright pretty looking sky ! #2. HUGE icicle that looked like you could kill someone with it or something.. Pulled from near a gutter on the side of a building #3. & 4 & 5 - various images from a silly party I had where I pretended to be some elf king turning like 204 years old lol (also not like #a REAL party. Only my roommates were there really and we're all in the same household bubble. #just to clarify. I would never dare have a large party anyway given #my hermitous nature but on top of that.. didn't want there to be some implication that I'm having a Party while covid is still ongoing lol. #NEVER.. But I do love dressing up as some fantasy character so much.. The only thing that could ever bring a true hermit wizard #to engage with others socially is the prospect of connecting it somehow to fantasy worlds and costumes lol. One must simply dress up #as a silly 200 year old man from time to time and pretend you've never seen a balloon before in your life. etc. #6. bapy boye... feets #7. The main food that I made for the elderly elf man 'party'. which was a Deconstructed Beef Wellington (kind of as ajoke since I watch s #o many silly cooking competition shows and they always make stuff 'deconstructed' at the last minute when under time limits or whatever.) #I've wanted to make beef wellington a few times but Ithink to do it well I'd need like..an actual kitchen and a lot of time and #an oven that fully works to bake things and etc. etc. So I thought this would be an easier method. A thick steak cut round to kind of mimi #c the round tenderloin or whatever it is in a wellington. instead of the puff pastry being wrapped around - I just did star shaped cut outs #of pastry and baked them and put them on top (to go with the star theme). instead of mushroom duxelles being wrapped around in pastry #its in a little circle under the steak. and instead of mustard being brushed onto the meat I made a mustard gravy sauce type of thing #Then of course asparagus on the side.. my favorite... Though I know some wellington #also has a layer of prosciutto I think. or I saw one person use crepes. I didn't feel it was necessary to incorporate that too lol #8. bapy son helping me do a giant puzzle that took me hours and I had no idea it was actually that large of a puzzle #until I started putting it together and for some reason it made me stressed by the end instead of relaxed lol.. puzzle fatigue #photo diary

don't you worry about any of that! you write so well that I'll gladly read whatever you decide to publish 💛 I've been thoroughly enjoying not only your amazing lestappen, but everything you've been writing – you do you, and thank you!

aaaah deb please this is so nice ;-; <3

i've not completely abandonned lestappen (i did just come up with wholeass fake dating au that included a lot of clothes sharing between max and charles including the infamous quali pants) but i did suffer some serious writers block at the end of may (which i dont think i really talked about??) which left me not wanting to write anything and i got super frustrated with it.

anyway i've now gotten back to a point where i actually want to write things again so for now i'm just indulging myself writing whatever silly little stories i want in the hopes i'll eventually get to a place where i can write the Serious Big Fics again (like. you know. the roommates au lmao)

but i'm really happy to hear that there's people who will read anything i write it makes me feel very ;-;

#like lestappen is still my home base #but there's something delightfully fun about the lando/oscar dynamic that is just. curing my writers block in ways i cant explain #i think its the possibility for sillyness #like one of the ideas i have rn is a fic in which oscar does a lot of stress baking during race weekends #and like he leaves the baked goods in the mclaren hospitality #lando eats one at some point and is like. i am in love i NEED to marry the girl who made this #and oscar who is like harboring a serious crush for lando at this point is like. well i REALLY dont want to deal with the dissapointed look #on his face when he realizes its not a GIRL but ME who's doing the baking #so he says nothing #and then lando goes on this insane james bond esque mission to find out who mystery baking girl is #ropes oscar into it as well #and then during afternoons staking out the mclaren kitchens and patrolling the cafeteria or whatever lando thinks up #he slowly starts falling for oscar instead #oh and then there's also the werewolf au lmao #but i've been rambling for long enough and maybe like 2.3 people are insterested in this so you know #landoscar

I am once again offering berry tarts to anyone who wants them. Stress baking has filled my kitchen and I need room so that I can cook real food.

#stress baking strikes again #i have already handed out berry tarts to all my neighbors #i think the children in vicinity have gained a sense for when i am baking because they knock on my door within half an hour #or they can just smell them... #pkmn irl #pokeblogging #rotomblr #pokeblr #pokemon irl

kojiro nanjo headcanon is just that hes like half italian or italian in some capacity. if you even care.

#thats why when his loved ones are stressed or in a predicament he showers them with food #he bakes cookies and makes handmade pasta. he goes full nonna #i'm not sure if this is coming thru in what i have published of my matchablossom fic so far #which i need to update #kojiro nanjo #matchablossom #joe sk8 #he has cousins in new jersey btw #i think his mom is italian #also this gives me the added bonus that i can hc him as at least a little bit catholic... #joseph is his confirmation name! obviously! #i sound so insane in this post

[andrwgarfields]

I wasn’t surprised that Joe was so meticulous on bakeoff, he comes off as very determined and hard working with everything he does, I remember him talking about how hard he tried to make absolutely sure he got the Agatha role (and Heartstopper, once he realized he actually had a shot), and he keeps choosing to do projects that are not easy, like he’s been going hard nonstop for a while now! It doesn’t surprise me that determination would carry over to his baking, even if it is just for fun/stress relief. :)

yeah im kinda not surprised but at the same time im kinda surprised by the intensity?? like re rolling his dough, taking out his ruler to measure??? and i lowkey found it cool (and a wee bit unfair) that his showstopper was an actual showstopper where his fondant was covering all the cake (WHICH ISNT EASY!) as compared to the rest who covered the top of their cake lol

but yeah joe has always come off to me that he takes everything seriously and wanting it to do perfectly no matter how “fun” this thing is

#he stresses me out cause he reminds me of my mum when he bakes #which im surprised lol #my mum will take out a ruler #and would also re roll a dough #ask #anonymous #joe locke #heartstopper #i love him bt i hope he realises hes doing well

[rozugold]

to add to the baking failures, i baked cupcakes for my friends birthday a while back, iced them and everything. Then proceeded to try one of the cupcakes after dropping them off at their house and realised i forgot the sugar... (they were like scone texture 😭)

i never found out how they found them either so im just imagining they were very confused

Skjdhf to be fair that still sounds pretty good

#the frosting sounds like it’d save it #still sadge though #I get so stressed when i bake for other people ;;; #rozu asks #fondesmode

#D’Vaughn and Kris Plan A Wedding #aroaessidhe 2023 reads #ok we do love some lesbians #and the basis of the romance was pretty good! #but I don’t think i can read non-audio romance books anymore lol #it felt a little half baked to me especially the reality show concept #if this is a reality tv show…..are they being filmed? if they’re being filmed…..why do their families not suspect anything? #it;s brought up ONCE and like ‘for her big social media’ but.....idk man #also like the lying to your family…..oof! it’s just not acknowledged at the end???? other than like them being so overwhelmed by the display #of true love..... tbh it made me way too stressed #by like half way when they decide they’re in love with each other it kind of speedruns to the end - I would have liked it to be a LITTLE mor #more realistic - like; ‘i feel like i could fall in love with you; lets treat this as real and forget the show’ instead of just. we’re in lo #love now. completely. #i would still rec if youre looking for Black lesbian romance books tho!

Little Mario Movie headcanon: Toadtown use to look more like the Toadtowns of Mario and Luigi and Paper Mario, just with a lot more stairs because Mountain.

Peach, who had just recently learned the power of moving platforms and floating blocks with her Mario Maker Obstacle Course, revamped the town when she was like 14 to include these and pipes so all the stubby legged Toads wouldn’t have to climb so many stairs to get everywhere.

#Mario Movie #I just #I was thinking about her cool Obstacle Course and it's relation to like. Mario Maker spesifically #And like SOMEONE had to make it and something tells me it wasn't the Toads they just don't seem like the types #And then how the town is clearly constructed by someone with the same design signature right? #What I'm saying is; Architect Peach #Mario and Luigi are plumbers Peach is an Engineer are you picking up what I'm putting down? #I just think a Peach who likes to work with her hands and Make Things is very canon #She likes to Bake she likes to Paint she likes to Sculpt she likes to Build #She's a hands on kind of Princess she always has been that's!!! A canon Peach character!!!! #And I like the idea She's the reason Toadtown looks like that!!!! #Peach built the course when she was like 10 or so and ran it like a champ #All of this would give Toadsworth a heart attack btw no wonder he wasn't in the movie he's already dead Peach stressed him to death
